Answer
where from for heaven's sake do you get that graphics card for £80? this is way too expensive for a HD 5450 and even with 2GB video ram it still isn't a gamer graphics card. for gaming you need one with a much more powerful engine, e.g. a HD 5770 in order the stay within your tight budget.

get this one from overclockers.co.uk for just £90 (inc. VAT) and you're still within your budget of £500.
